PETALING JAYA: IOI Corp Bhd
is expected to report weaker earnings for its third quarter ended March 31, (3Q25) due to seasonally low fresh fruit bunch (FFB) and crude palm oil (CPO) output, but production appears to be picking up ahead of 4Q25, according to UOB Kay Hian Research (UOBKH Research).
“Despite IOI Corp reporting a 4.4% decline year-on-year (y-o-y) for FFB production in 3Q25, we nonetheless observed signs of production picking up once again since January, with the latest disclosed output figures for March indicating 7% y-o-y growth in addition to a 19% month-on-month increase versus February,” the research house said.
